Fill a room with sound, not gear

Legendary Bose® sound and performance comes to your listening room with the Lifestyle® 135 Series II home entertainment system. One slim speaker fits neatly under your television and delivers spacious room-filling sound while making a minimal impact on your decor. A compact yet powerful wireless Acoustimass® module tucks away out of sight while supplying deep, rich bass that adds authority to your listening and viewing. Together, they bring Bose performance to all your entertainment, every day — TV, movies, sports, video games, 3D and even AM/FM radio.

Control all your entertainment from one remote

The media center accepts up to 6 HD video and music sources — things like your Blu-ray player, a game console, or a cable/satellite box, for example. In combination with the universal remote and intuitive on-screen menus, the process of choosing the evening's entertainment has never been easier. The entire system is carefully designed to give you maximum options with minimum fuss. And, regardless of the shape of your listening environment, Bose's ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system customizes the system's sound profile to get the best from your room, so you'll always be sure your videos and music sound as good as they possibly can.

Super-flexible placement options

The Bose® Lifestyle® 135 Series II home entertainment system fits in with almost any living space (TV not included).

Thanks to Flexmount™ automatic placement compensation technology, you can wall-mount the sound bar vertically as an elegant, thin-profile companion to your flat-panel TV (requires the optional wall-mount kit) or place it horizontally on your TV stand. Built-in circuitry determines the position of the speaker and adjusts its output accordingly to ensure great sound.

Easily create a multi-room music system

With the addition of an optional Bose® SoundTouch™ wireless adapter, your Bose® Lifestyle® 535 Series II system can connect to other SoundTouch™ systems to give you convenient whole-house audio. Stream Internet radio, Pandora®, and your music library wirelessly over your Wi-Fi® network. In "Play Everywhere" mode, your linked systems can play the same music simultaneously — great for parties. Or each system can play independently, giving you different music in different rooms.

Product Highlights:

wide, spacious home theater sound for movies, music, sports and video games

Sound bar speakers: room-filling sound with less clutter

Add big sound to your TV without a roomful of speakers. Sound bars require minimal space and wiring, and their sleek designs complement today's flat-panel TVs. Most sound bars have their own built-in amplification, so you won't need to use a home theater receiver. Some models use advanced surround processing and carefully aimed speaker drivers to simulate the effects of a full home theater audio system.

output. The AV control console also features a built-in AM/FM tuner.

Wireless Acoustimass Module: The wireless Acoustimass module
produces deep low notes for added home theater realism. The wireless link allows
for flexible placement & does away with any speaker cables from the module to
the soundbar. The wireless Acoustimass module adds dramatic low notes to your
entertainment, without the addition of more cables. The bass control knob
located on the rear-panel of the Acoustimass module allows you to change the bass level output
of the system. Turn the bass control knob clockwise to increase the bass or

AV control console, soundbar speaker, & wireless Acoustimass module
each require a separate AC power connection.

all analog video inputs are upconverted to HDMI.

Bose ADAPTiQ Audio Calibration System: The soundbar
speaker's performance is customized to the acoustics of your room with the Bose
ADAPTiQ audio calibration system. ADAPTiQ audio calibration system analyzes the
way your room's dimensions & other variables affect sound, then automatically
adjusts the sound of your speaker system to the acoustics of your room. To
perform a calibration you need about 10 minutes when the room is quiet. While
wearing the special headset, the system will ask you to place yourself in five
different locations (sitting or standing) in your listening area as the system
takes measurements in each. Audio prompts from the system will guide you through
the process.

Note: The special headset supplied with the
ADAPTiQ system has no speakers, but special microphones designed to be worn
above the ears. It enables you to take acoustic measurements in your room during
the custom equalization process. The headset has an adjustable headband and a
28' cord terminating in a pair of stereo male RCA plugs. These plug into the
system's front-panel left and right RCA inputs.

system.

link technology. Bose link whole-home audio technology lets you connect
compatible Bose products to the Lifestyle home entertainment system for
listening to different sources in as many as 14 additional rooms. For example, a
Blu-ray/DVD movie can be playing in the main room , while you listen to the
AM/FM radio in the other room.

Note: The AV control console provides a stereo RCA input
for each rear-panel HDMI input so you are able to distribute your connected
component's audio via Bose Link.

Mounting Options

Flexmount Technology: Proprietary
Flexmount technology ensures optimal performance wherever the soundbar is
positioned. The soundbar speaker can be mounted to a wall (using the optional
WB-135 bracket, sold separately); or placed flat on a table. Flexmount
technology detects the soundbar speaker's orientation & ensures optimal audio
output however you position the speaker. To raise the soundbar speaker and allow
more space under it, you can install the included extension feet.

Note: The Lifestyle 135 series II system uses the reflective
surfaces of your room to deliver wide, spacious sound. For best sound
quality, the speaker array should not be placed inside a cabinet, or
diagonally in a corner.

Acoustimass Module Placement: When placing the Acoustimass
module on bare floors, or other smooth surfaces, attach the included rubber feet
to the bottom of the module for greater stability and to protect your floor. For
best sound quality, place the Acoustimass module on its feet along the same wall
as your TV, or along any other wall in the front third of the room. The front
opening of the module can face any direction. The wireless Acoustimass module
has a range of approximately 30'.

Compact size plus great home theater experience!

Purchased this to replace older outdated Sony ES receiver and Bose speakers. Was skeptical of how well this new console would sound in my large 20X30 cathedral ceiling room. Not only is the sound awesome (thanks to AdaptiQ), but the console has increased the picture quality of my Dish HD programs and Blue-ray DVDs. Never dissatisfied with any Bose product or the awesome customer service and ease of ordering from Crutchfield.

Pros:Compact with less cords for other components plus great sound and picture quality. Easy set-up with AdaptiQ.
